A number of you have suggested that we send an email once a week outlining the training and events for the following week. My hope is that this will allow you to time-block working "on" your business for the following week.
So that we can plan accordingly, please reply to feliciaa@kw.com and let her know which classes you intend to attend. We are keeping event signup sheets at the front desk to allow us to be better prepared for all future training.
I plan to attend the following events (see below for details):
____ SHIFT 2 Tour with Gene Rivers – June 17th (see attached flyer)
____ Developing an Investment Strategy that Leads to Financial Independence with David Thomas, Remax (June 5 at 10 am)
____ How to Sell 50+ Homes Per Month with Connie Carlson (June 5 at 10 am)
____ Online Social Networking Workshop (June 10 at 1 pm)
____ Developing an Investment Strategy that Leads to Financial Independence (June 5 at 10 am)
Tuesday: June 2nd – 10 am Team Meeting –
We have put together a great team meeting for Tuesday. This Tuesday we will be presenting two out-of-the-box initiatives that will help put more money in your pocket. There is no cost (FREE) to participate and the up-site potential for income generation is HUGE (I mean bigger than big).
Developing an Investment Strategy That Leads to Financial Independence for You and/or Your Clients, Friday, June 5th: 10 am
Join David Thomas, with ReMax Commercial, as he shows you the step-by-step process to grow wealth through 1031 Exchanges of Residential Real Estate. According to Rocky Kaufmann in our office, David is one of "the best" trainers in Atlanta. We are so fortunate that David has volunteered to share his proven investment strategies. In fact, I recently met with one of David's co-workers, a young gentleman around 30 years old, who told me that he was on track to own (in an investment group) 50 homes by the time he was 40. Another investor says "I have been doing David's program for 9 years and I have already reached the point where I am making $125,000 a year. I am financially independent and I could retire at any moment. But I love doing this so I have no intentions of stopping…" How would you like to be financially independent in 9 years? Even if investing in real estate is not in the cards for you, I bet you know of someone who would be interested. Right? Great…I will see you Friday at 10 am.
How to Sell 50+ Homes a Month, Friday, June 5th: 2 pm
I bet you read the title of this class and you think "yeah right". I would have thought the same thing until I met Brent Gove from Roseville, California. I rode to the Austin airport with Brent last month and he told me that he sold between 400 to 700 homes a year!!! I asked him how he did that. He replied "open houses". After I picked my jaw up off the car floor, I asked him if he would be willing to share his secret to successful open houses. And share he did….Brent told me that he typically had 25 to 50 people at every open house (in a community where the average agent only had 2 or 3 people at an open house). I was still a bit skeptical until two weeks ago when I drove by orange open house signs like the signs in Brent's program. . I think to myself "I'll be darn. I am going to check this out and see how many people are at this open house." The home that was being held open had boarded windows and is listed for $170k. It is located in the Brookstone Country Club subdivision in West Cobb County. Homes in Brookstone have historically sold for $250k to $1.5 million. It is raining. There are two ERA agents in the house who have been there for about 1.5 hours. They tell me that it has been very slow because of the rain. They have had only 15 buyers walk through. They said that a couple weeks before they held open a home in Douglasville and had 200 people come through the open house. I am a huge believer now!!!! Meet me on Friday at 2 pm and see how open houses can change your life!!!
Online Social Marketing Workshop, June 10th: 1 - 5 pm
I was very fortunate to meet John Damiano, Associate Broker with The Providence Group at Remax, a couple weeks ago. John and I both have a passion for networking and referral based business. John is also very passionate and knowledgeable about the benefits of "Social Networking" (visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_networking if you would like further clarification on what I mean by "Social Networking"). John has graciously agreed to help YOU get connected online through Social Networking sites such as Facebook, Linked In, Twitter, etc. He will also be able to answer questions you may have about what is appropriate, the benefits of social networking, etc. This is a "workshop" so bring your laptop. John and I decided to design the class so that when you leave at 5 pm you will personally be set up on all the major sites – and you may have some other cool tricks/tips up your sleeve.
Recently I asked in Facebook how Social Networking had impacted agent's careers. Attached are just a few of the testimonials I received. If you too would like to start generating business, reconnecting with friends, having fun, and being on the cutting edge of the real estate then plan on joining us next Wednesday.
SHIFT 2 Overdrive Tour, June 17th: All day
Gene Rivers, a MEGA agent within KW, will be here in Atlanta on June 17th for the Shift 2 Workshop. For only $15 you can attend this all day workshop at the Renaissance Atlanta Hotel.

RSVP to Felicia right

You came to the 2008 SHIFT Tour. Why come back?
Ask Yourself ...
- Are you holding your money accountable?
- Is every one of your listings priced in the market?
- Are your lead generation efforts producing the RIGHT leads?
- Do you know exactly what activities are growing your profit?
- Do you know the right scripts for buyers who want to wait?
- Are you armed with the skills to generate REO and short sale business?
- Do you know exactly how many listing appointments you need to meet your goals?
If you can't answer "YES" to every one of these questions, you need to be there!
Grow Your Profit Share Tree, Every Monday in June from 10:30 to 12:00. This new course designed by KW International will help you know the privilege of being treated like a stakeholder and have a plan to activate your passive income potential. Kelly Coker Smith attended this training event about two months ago and told me it was one of the best courses she has taken in this market center "have more classes like this" Kelly said. Wondering if Profit Share is "real". Try asking Deborah Harris who shared with me that as of February she had over $109,000 deposited into her savings account from Profit Share. Isn't it about time that you started experiencing "the Gift"?.
Wednesday and Thursday: June 3-4: Certified Distressed Property Expert Training in Sandy Springs.
Of course, we continue to have a successful Power Hour that starts every day at 9 am! In the Month of May we made 685 calls, spoke to 341 people, and made 99 appointments. That means for every 3 people we spoke to during Power Hour we booked an appointment with!!! Ladies and Gentlemen these numbers are spectacular. If you are not yet participating in Power Hour you are really missing out on a great opportunity to improve your business.
I realize that this was a long email. I would appreciate your feedback on whether you think it was helpful and if you would like me to continue sending these on a weekly basis!
Yours in productivity!
